With Halloween just a week away, it’s time to talk Halloween costumes. People are going to be frantically last-minute shopping and hunting for the best deals.
On this campus, there are high expectations for Halloween. There are a lot of people that take this holiday very seriously. So, if you haven’t gone out and bought your costume yet, well, get cracking.
A lot of people this year are planning to dress up as their favorite celebrity. The top five most-searched celebrity costumes are Katy Perry, Nicki Minaj, Lady Gaga, Marilyn Monroe and Elvis Presley.
If you’d rather dress up as a character, there are plenty of popular ones to choose from this Halloween, such as Minnie Mouse, Bane, Catwoman, Wonder Woman, Katniss Everdeen, Power Rangers, Alice in Wonderland, Little Red Riding Hood, Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn.
For those of you that don’t wish to be a celebrity or character this Halloween, don’t worry, there are plenty of other hot costumes to choose from.
Superman, Wonder Woman, Spiderman, Ninjago, pirates, zombies and Minnie Mouse are all the top buys as of right now. Stores are selling out of these rather quickly, so go fast if you don’t want to be stuck as a fairy or a zombie bride again.
Halloween is one of the greatest holidays, simply because it is one day of the year where you can be something other than yourself. You can dress up as anything you want and wear crazy make-up and still fit in.
This Halloween, have fun with your costume; try being something new or something out of your comfort zone. Be a little crazy, what do you have to lose?
The best places to find the coolest costumes for the lowest process are at the seasonal stores in the mall. Every mall has one, and during this time of year, there’s usually a Halloween store renting the space.
So go find the perfect costume for you at the perfect price. Most of all, have a very happy Halloween and don’t eat too much candy.
